I love you Nancy, I have 3 black cats lover your personality
it's a long story but jewelry is my dream ive saved and saved I went to school for @ 9 month jewelry course 2014 to 2015 since I’ve been saving and buying what I can to have a good start. Due to some personal tragedies I have not been able to make anything I have been working hard to regain my confidence my jewellery course was one of the best experiences I’ve ever had in my entire life The teachers I had and the students were amazing I feel fortunate that able to experience something like that i sobbed and sobbed on my last day. Anyways you make me laugh as well as educate.
I love the women I have seen doing jewellery this afternoon, where did I put that! Brilliant!
Thank you very much. I never thought I'd find a clear explanation of pinbacks and placement. Yet, you did it!
Another fascinating video about pins and backs this time. I ditto my comment from the hinge video. I didn't realize that they could be so varied and INTERESTING. You explain the purpose and the components of these things so well Nancy. Another aspect of your teaching is very powerful in its capability of making the knowledge STICK, so as to be available in recall at a later date. Blimey, that was delving on philosophical. Thanks and Love from Zina and Me.
Thanks for sharing, Nancy! You're my favorite jeweler to watch, easily - what a great combo of personality and technical knowledge. I haven't yet made any "functional" parts for my jewelry, can't wait to give these ideas a spin!
GREAT!!! as always , so creative and funny!
Thanx Nancy ! You solved my questions right on the spot. XX
As always - wonderful!❤
Amazing as always!
wow!!!! And finally the big tutorial I've searched for so long ^___^
This video just saved my bacon on a tricky brooch I couldn't figure out how to clasp cleanly. Somehow, I'd never figured out that the pin doesn't need to extend beyond the catch! And since the only way I could make the clasp work on my current project was to have the pin oriented upward, I was really not happy about the stabby-stabby hazard.
You are FANTASTIC! I am your your new disciple from now on!
I'm so glad I found this video & your channel. I make brooches but have no pins. Thank you thank you thank you.
I looove you my favorite jeweler, you! Thank you so much!
I couldn’t pay attention because the whole time I tried to figure out how u made the gorgeous necklace u r wearing! Is the blossom turning?! Looks stunning! OK, so now I watch it again.
Thanks Nancy. I've been looking for you ;O)
I love your flower necklace!
Thank you!
You are the best Nancy... LOL
You’re the best
Your necklace is Beautiful!
Ms. Nancy, my next project is a large-ish copper barrette for a friend. I was just going to do a wooden pin through the holes but looking at this I'm wondering about doing a larger version of the pin-back (not sharpened) as a barrette fastener. Any thoughts on this?
Hi Nancy, thank you for the videos, I want to make copper brooches, but not sure what thickness, (in mm) of sheet to buy and use, any guidance would be much appreciated, thank you, Chris.
Who is the maker of your rings on left hand? ❤️! Thank you for sharing your advice on pins and types of wire. Great advice!
Hello
I have got 2 queries.
If I want to use stainless steel wire to create a pin back for a brooch, what gauge would you advise me to use?
Can I hammer stainless steel wire?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Hello! I want to make a finger brooch and I don't know what pin to attach so that the finger won't roll down and stay put. I ve tried a spring but it's not right. Can you please advise me? Thanks!
Hey Nancy,
Do you order your stainless wire, or do you buy it at a local hardware store? Also, is there a test to tell of a spool of wire is stainless steel? I am a collector of old woodworking tools and I tend to pick up lots of odds and ends and I have several large spools of wire and would like to know what they are!!
Love your video's
Thanks for taking the time to create them.

+ozmommi I purchase my stainless wire from the hardware store. The types of steel can, sometimes, be difficult to tell apart. One easy trick is to put stainless in some pickle with a piece of scrap silver (pour some in a cup - you don't want to mess up your pickle pot). Then put the suspect wire into the same scenario. The steel and pickle solution will coat the silver with copper, the stainless won't. ( I don't know how I know this about stainless steel - can't find any backup evidence but, Rio Grande and other places sell Stainless Steel pickle warmers and baskets). Here is a link that might help as there are tons of steel alloys out there: www.engineeringtoolbox.com/identification-stainless-steel-d_383.html
Try a magnet
Also a bit of nitric acid helps
just a word about the filming itself... not enough contrast or light in order to clearly see most of the examples
Too dark
Just unsubscribed for that stupid intro
